Another great Michigan camp that should definitely be included on this page is Bohemian Adventure. My son attended last year and loved it.
Here’s a description from their website:
Bohemian Adventure is an active travel camp filled with exploration, learning and discovery. Campers 9-15 years old spend four unforgettable days connecting with nature as they bike from Kalamazoo to the Lake Michigan coast via the Kal-Haven trail. During their session, campers will experience survival challenges, team building and leadership exercises, outdoor cooking, and wilderness education. To participate campers must provide their own bicycle, helmet and tent. Amazingly affordable and voted best value summer program in West Michigan.

Another one: Camp Infinity, offered by the Michigan Council for Women in Technology is a FREE tech camp for girls going into grades 5-8. The girls do website building, animation and robotics.

Do you know of any programs that study astronomy or astrology for middle school-aged kids?
I recommend you check out some of the college summer programs. These are most likely to cater to middle school-aged kids and to cover a wide variety of learning subjects. Check out a community college near you or one of the major universities in the area.
This is a wonderful list. Here’s another group of STEM/STEAM camps I’d like to share with you, from New Morning School in Plymouth, an independent school. These camps range from age 3 right up through sixth grade. https://newmorningschool.org/summer-programs-scheduled-to-begin-july-9-run-through-aug-10/
Sure, I will be glad to add your camps to our list! Thanks for letting us know about them.
Awesome Resource. Is it possible to be added to the list?
